|The most comprehensive travel guide to Gulangyu Island - Part 2, save it now. Next ④ Fun: 1. In addition to Sunlight Rock, Shuzhuang Garden, Haoyue Garden, Bagua Tower, Historical and Cultural Exhibition Hall, Pangu Museum, She Ethnic Minority Museum, etc. (next to the Catholic Church), other places worth visiting include: 2. I highly recommend the Organ Art Center. There are piano performances and explanations at four time points every day. There will be a 45-minute organ performance at 4 pm every Friday. Tickets are hard to get. If you want to make an appointment on Friday, it is recommended to set the alarm on Wednesday night. Go immediately after midnight (that is, you can make an appointment for Thursday and Friday at 00:00 on Thursday. One ID number can only make one appointment within seven days. If you can't go, cancel early and you can make another appointment.) If you have time, I recommend walking around the island. It takes about 2-3 hours to complete the walk. 3. If you walk from Neicuoao Wharf towards the Academy of Fine Arts and Sunlight Rock, you can come across Meihua Beach and a scenery very similar to the Shuzhuang Garden Sea Boardwalk (near Shell Park). If you walk from Neicuoao Wharf towards Sanqiutan Wharf, there is also a beach with dark red reefs and people picking up shells for fun. It is quite picturesque here. (Shortcut tips: Exit from Longshandong Tunnel and you will be closer to Neicuoao Pier) 4. The trees on the island are very old, and some are three or four hundred years old. Even if they are blown down by the wind, they can still live. Their vitality is really strong. You can see them on the way to Shuzhuang Garden and Haoyue Garden. 5. To send postcards, there is a China Post store in the direction of the street park. Most postcards are 5r each, registered mail +3r, and envelopes are 5r each (envelopes can be found at the stationery store near the school near Xiamen Island). Buying beauty is only a few dollars a piece) 6. The weather in the Botanical Garden is good and suitable for a day of fun. You can go to the west gate at around 9 o'clock in the morning when the sun comes out to take pictures of the tropical rainforest and the Tyndall effect. It doesn't matter if you miss it. You can go through the south gate and take the elevator up the mountain. The first attraction is the lavender garden and the green lawn. Take a photo and you will feel like you are back to the non-mainstream avatar in a second. It is very big and you can take your time to visit it. (At the entrance of the botanical garden, there are people who persuade you to take a sailboat, saying that it is not a good time to enter the botanical garden. It is best not to pay attention to them.) 7. Xiamen University and Nanputuo Temple. You can visit these two together with Shapowei in one day. You need to make an appointment three days in advance for Xiamen University. It will be better if the weather is good. When you enter Nanputuo Temple, you can get a stick of incense to light. It really feels sacred and solemn when you enter the temple. 8. Gulangyu Concert Hall: There are performances almost every week of every month, and reservations are free. It is worthwhile to cultivate your sentiments even if you don’t have a musical talent. 9. The Gulangyu branch of Xiamen Library on the island is not big and is very suitable for quiet reading. There are many stray cats on the island, but it is clean, so cat lovers are in luck. However, it is recommended not to feed them randomly. 10. Supplement: I didn't specifically look for the ginger duck. I went to Xiamen Island to eat at A-Dai. It is recommended to eat with two or more people. I met a young lady who ordered a set meal for one person. I ate until I was full, but I got tired of it in the end because it was all meat. Summary: Xiamen and Gulangyu are really exquisite and romantic cities, suitable for leisurely strolling. It is easy to encounter surprises in corners. There are still many details, I will add them later when I remember them. Xiamen, Fujian

During this trip, I entered the embrace of Xiamen with awe of history, exploration of culture, and love of life.

Baroque-style villas and red-brick old houses with southern Fujian characteristics stand there quietly, as if showing the world the former glory and vicissitudes of Gulangyu Island. I strolled in the quiet alley, the melodious sound of piano came to my ears and the faint fragrance of flowers filled the air.

I strolled along the cobblestone road, with arcade buildings full of southern Fujian style on both sides, various snack bars and handicraft shops lined up, and the air was filled with the aroma of seafood and the strong smell of fireworks. Shapowei is also a place full of literary and artistic atmosphere.

Nanputuo Temple is a successful example of commercializing a temple. It's not just about the scenery within the courtyard or the temple's incense, but also the internet-famous prayer beads and vegetarian biscuits, along with the exquisite vegetarian restaurant and coffee shop. There's so much to explore! Spending half a day here, eating, drinking, strolling, and buying souvenirs makes it a super worthwhile place to check out. A trip to Xiamen isn't just about seeing the sea; you must experience the charm of Nanputuo Temple. 🔺The vegetarian biscuits in the first picture. Almost everyone buys these biscuits, and the packaging is beautiful, making them a popular souvenir. I bought green bean and coconut flavors, both delicious and not overly sweet. 🔺Nanputuo Temple's vegetarian restaurant. It's on the second floor of the noodle shop. The buffet and noodle shop are often crowded and noisy. If you prefer a quieter and more pleasant environment, head straight to the second floor. The set meal for 68 is really good. 🔺The Little Wooden House Cafe. Although it's called a tea house, it seems like everyone drinks coffee there. The little wooden house has a special ambiance. Sitting by the window, looking out at the temple courtyard while enjoying a coffee is a truly unique experience. The coffee names are quite sophisticated, but the taste is average. 🔺Buying prayer beads. Nine out of ten visitors buy prayer beads! Nanputuo Temple's prayer bead business is booming, with crowds often squeezing in front of the counter to get a good look. There's a huge variety of prayer beads! With various price points and materials, you can choose based on your preferences.😂 This is one of the reasons for their popularity. Whether it's different spending power, aesthetics, or age, you're sure to find the perfect prayer beads. You can ask the monks to see specific beads and try them on. It's said that all the beads sold are consecrated. However, the monks also mention that if you have specific requests, you can pay extra for an on-site consecration ceremony. 🔺The courtyard is very picturesque. After exploring, it's relaxing to stroll by the pond and bask in the sun. The mirror at the washbasin outside the restroom faces the trees in the courtyard, creating another great photo opportunity!

#2月好去地方2025 This visit to Nanputuo Temple gave me a deeper understanding of Buddhist culture and history. Nanputuo Temple is located at the foot of Wulao Peak in Xiamen. It is surrounded by mountains and water, with a quiet environment. The overall building is solemn and majestic, full of Zen. When entering the temple, the first thing that catches your eye is the Main Hall, where the solemn Sakyamuni Buddha is enshrined. Next to it are the statues of Guanyin Bodhisattva and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, giving people a sense of tranquility and peace. I burn incense and pray sincerely, silently reciting blessings in my heart, hoping that myself, my family and friends will be safe and healthy. There are also buildings such as the Heavenly King Hall and the Sutra Repository in the temple, each of which showcases the craftsmanship and cultural heritage of traditional Buddhist architecture. I particularly like the atmosphere of the Sutra Repository, which houses many Buddhist scriptures and ancient books, which make people feel reverence for Buddhism. In addition, there is a pond for releasing animals into the wild in Nanputuo Temple. There are many turtles and koi in the pond, which symbolize compassion and blessings, allowing people to stop and appreciate and think about the meaning of life. At the end of the visit, I climbed up the Wulao Peak in the back and overlooked the beautiful scenery of Xiamen from the mountain. I felt the vastness of the world and my heart became calmer and more open. This trip to Nanputuo Temple not only allowed me to feel the charm of Buddhist culture, but also allowed me to find a moment of tranquility in my busy life and re-examine my inner balance. This pilgrimage is undoubtedly an experience of spiritual cleansing and growth.
